Psyducks Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Hi, somebody tried to steal my bootlid cover and did a shocking job at it snapping all the clips, How would i go about finding one that has keyless entry and how would i fit? really struggling to find this part online Do i also need the gasket? and how is this fitted? thanks! if i can't find a keyless i would have to make do with a normal one. so expensive for what it is.

Psyducks Posted July 14, 2017 Author Share Posted July 14, 2017 Quote Hi guys, i've ordered a new one from eBay and the gasket, does anyone know how the gaskets fits? do just put it on the trim or on the car or what? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TangoDaz Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 I would have thought that you put the gasket into the handle especially it it has studs on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W and anchor springs to mind, Don't think the keyless entry has any thing to do with it just as long as you still have the boot release sensor intact. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russ Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 1 hour ago, Psyducks said: Hi sorry what do you mean by handle? The 'handle' is the bit of trim in your picture. You refer to it as your 'bootlid cover'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have told Ford they could whistle Dixie for 400+ ! lmao at "what is w and anchor" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee_82 Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 my tail gate handle is held on by 6 bolts as well as the plastic clips, they ripped all them out too? edit, actually don't look like you have them, how odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford obviously designed the trim/handle to break (hence the extortionate cost to replace!) when I fixed mine I placed plenty of epoxy around each clip to give them strength, that was over a year ago and to date they're still solid :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil21185 Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Araldite 20/20 or 5 (or 30) minute Devcon will glue anything to anything. And in this case the glued joint will be stronger than the original material was. Both available online. Devcon On ebay. Any of the epoxies. Lol w and anchor. Same as ah and soul. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
